TEMPLE FORK OUTFITTERS HEROES ON THE WATER RODS


$100 / www.tforods.com A


With its contemporary split-grip design, flashy paint, high grade cork and SiC guides, you will scratch your head wondering how so much value is attainable for the price. This rod is more than a looker. From casting light jigs to walking a topwater, it’s got you covered. Don’t be fooled by the medium-light power rating, there is plenty of juice in reserve even when targeting larger fish in situations demanding light presentations. Best of all, a portion of the proceeds benefits Heroes on the Water. Cast or spin. JOSE CHAVEZ

SHIMANO TREVALA JIGGING RODS


$120 / fish.shimano.com B C B


Shimano built the Trevala series for their Butterfly Jigging system, but West Coast kayak anglers didn’t stop there. They adopted the kayak-perfect seven-foot long, versatile and durable TVC70ML for a wide array of tasks. It is incredible for light tackle jigging. Despite its soft tip, this little twig has mojo when needed, readily subduing pelagics up to 25 pounds. When not on the salt it is also great for tossing frogs to bucket mouths, or pulling plugs for Chinook. If you prefer to flip a bail, look for the TVS70ML spinning version. SEAN WHITE


C ST. CROIX AVID INSHORE


$190/ www.stcroixrods.com E


Built on a high modulus SCIII blank, St. Croix’s Avid Inshore delivers the enhanced sensitivity and durability befitting a premium rod, spin or cast. Fitted with high-grade stainless components, it was designed for the hardcore angler who hits the water every week and requires equipment that will not succumb to the environment. It’s tough; St Croix backs it with a limited lifetime warranty. Spending the extra bucks is a no brainer for the serious angler looking for a refined workhorse. JOSE CHAVEZ
